Robinson W. "Wally" Fulweiler is an American marine biogeochemist who was trained as an ecosystems ecologist and biogeochemist.

Education and career

Fulweiler received her undergraduate degree in international studies from the University of Vermont in 2000. In 2003, she earned her M.S. in oceanography from the University of Rhode Island, and completed her Ph.D. in 2007 under the advising of Scott Nixon.[1] In 2008 she joined the faculty at Boston University where she was promoted to professor in 2021.[2][3]

Research

Fulweiler is known for her research in nutrients and energy flow in marine environments. Her early work centered on Narragansett Bay where she worked on the impact of warming in the bay[4] and on the role bacteria play in adding nitrogen to the bay.[5] She has worked on the fluxes of silica,[6][7] and carbon.[8][9] Her work on nitrogen includes research into nitrogen runoff,[10] the factors controlling nitrogen in the environment,[11][12] and the incorporation of nitrogen cycling into biogeochemical models.[13][14]

Beyond her academic research, Fulweiler speaks to the impact of COVID on women in science,[15][16] higher education,[17] and the intersection of science and politics.[18]

Awards and honors

In 2012, Fulweiler was awarded a Sloan Research Fellowship.[19] In 2013, she received the Cronin Award from the Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation.[20] In 2015 the University of Rhode Island recognized Fulweiler as a rising star,[21] and in 2016 she was named a fellow of the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography.[22] Fulweiler has been selected to give a keynote talk at the 2024 Ocean Sciences Meeting.[23]
